Dou Fu Fa, a beancurd dessert, I had in Hong Kong in a very very hard-to-find location. Actually it was not that hard to find, provided you know where to look. This shop is a very traditional stall that mainly sells beancurd and this dessert made from beancurd. This dou fu fa is so smooth [...]
OMG… just looking at the picture reminds me of the savory taste of the roast goose we had in Hong Kong. For any tourists who wants a taste of the best roast goose, you gotta try this! The crispy skin, mixed with a little plum sauce, and its tender meat, feels just amazingly good in [...]
